The Devil Had A Hold Of Me

Now, I was just a girl of two
Now, I was just a girl of two
With golden heart and a button shoeThe devil had a hold of me
The devil had hold of me
I turned my head and I could see
The devil had hold of meThere was something wrong with the butcher's boy
Was something wrong with the butcher's boy?
He trembled in his hand and voiceThe devil had a hold of me
The devil had hold of me
The others knew to let him be
But the devil had hold of meNow the tailpipe spit and the engine roared
The tailpipe spit and the engine roared
I was wavin' out the plymouth doorAnd the devil had a hold of me
The devil had hold of me
The old folks saw the last they'd see
The devil had hold of meI dreamed last night that the time was done
I dreamed last night that my time was done
My soul flew up to holy SonBut the devil had a hold of me
The devil had hold of me
I snapped back down when he pulled my lead
The devil had hold of meThere're those who'll laugh and not believe
There're those who'll laugh and not believe
Until you feel that touch upon your sleeveThe devil had a hold of me
The devil had hold of me
I turned my head and I could see
The devil had hold of meI turned my head and I could see
The devil had hold of me
